FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0001] The present invention relates to devices handling a variety of fluids such as high-pressure slurry, and more particularly to tube fittings through which high-pressure fluid passes.

BACKGROUND ART

[0002] Conventional tube fittings for high-pressure fluid are shown in FIG. 10. In this figure, an end of a pipe 1 forming a route for high-pressure fluid is provided with a tapered face 1 a, and an inverse male screw 1 b follows the tapered face 1 a. Then, a box nut 2 is inserted from the end of the pipe 1.

[0003]FIG. 11 shows the box nut 2, in which (a) is a cross-sectional view taken along the line XI-XI of (b), and (b) is a side view. As illustrated in these figures, the box nut 2 is provided with a hole with a step, and the diameter of a larger hole 2 a on the end side is larger, and the diameter of a smaller hole 2 b on the rear end side has a diameter that the pipe 1 passes with a slight clearance. The outside of the box nut 2 on the rear end side is a hexagonal fastening portion 2 c to be fastened with wrenches or the like. After the box nut 2 is inserted to the pipe 1, then, a bush 3 is screwed to the inverse male screw 1 b.

[0004] Reference numeral 4 shows a block. The block 4 is provided with a female screw hole 5. On the bottom portion of the female screw hole 5 is opened a fluid route 6. An inlet portion of the fluid route 6 is a tapered face 6 a.

[0005] An end portion of the pipe 1 is inserted into the female screw hole 5, and a male screw on the outer surface of the box nut 2 is screwed to a female screw of the female screw hole 5, which causes the box nut 2 to enter deep into the recess of the female screw hole 5 while rotating. At this moment, the box nut 2 and the bush 3 contact with each other at both ends thereof, so that the friction due to the contact causes the box nut 2 and the bush 3 to rotate together. However, the female screw hole 5 has a regular screw (for example, a right screw), on the other hand, the bush 3 and the inverse male screw 1 b have inverse screws (for example, left screws), which causes the bush 3 to move in a direction opposite to the movement of the box nut 2. As a result, the bush 3 functions as a locking means for the box nut 2, and the pipe 1 proceeds in the female screw hole 5 until the tapered face 1 a at an end of the pipe 1 abuts the tapered face 6 a at the inlet portion of the fluid route 6. Further, strongly fastening the fastening portion 2 c of the box nut 2 with wrenches or the like allows the tapered face 1 a to press-contact to the tapered face 6 a, which connects the route for fluid on the pipe 1 side and the fluid route 6 on the block 4 side with each other.

PROBLEMS TO BE SOLVED BY THE INVENTION

[0006] However, the above-mentioned coupling has following problems. At first, when mounted, the tapered face 1 a and the tapered face 6 a deform in the same manner at the same portion on the circumferential peripheries of the tapered face 1 a and the tapered face 6 a to prevent leakage, so that when the coupling is mounted again after dismounted once, it is necessary to perfectly coincide the tapered face 1 a and the tapered face 6 a deformed at the first mounting with each other, or different deformed faces thereof are further strongly pressed to each other through tightening to generate new deformed faces. Since the former operation for perfectly coinciding the deformed portions with each other is actually impossible, the later, that is, tightening operation is usually adopted, but, the degree of tightening required to stop the leakage, when leakage occurs, cannot be expressed numerically, tightening is required until the leakage stops.

[0007] When the fluid is slurry, it leaks through the above minute clearance. The velocity of the leaked slurry becomes faster the smaller the clearance is. As a result, the both faces of the tapered face 1 a and the tapered face 6 a are flawed to have streams almost instantly. Therefore, even though the tightening to prevent leakage is executed, during this tightening operation, further slurry enters into minute clearances where further leakage occurs, which causes the flaw that is generated on the tapered face 1 a and the tapered face 6 a becomes deeper and deeper, so that the tightening operation is useless to prevent leakage.

[0008] For the above reason, under the aforementioned condition, the pipe 1 was removed and the tapered face 1 a at an end of the pipe and the tapered face 6 a of the block were ground or polished to use these parts again so far.

[0009] However, grinding or polishing the tapered face 1 a gradually shortens the length of the pipe 1, and grinding or polishing the tapered face 6 a causes the tapered face of the tapered face 6 a becomes deeper and deeper. On the other hand, the length of the pipe 1 is fixed, so that repeated grinding or polishing allows the tapered face 1 a and the tapered face 6 a not to closely contact with each other before long even if the box nut 2 is tightened. In the conventional tube fittings shown in FIG. 10, grinding or polishing operation is limited to twice to secure the close contact of the fittings, and new fittings should be purchased at the third operation.

[0010] The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and the object thereof is to provide a long-lived coupling for high-pressure fluid, which is able to easily tackle the wear at the connected portion due to high-pressure slurry.

EMBODIMENTES

[0041] Embodiments of the present invention will be explained below with reference to drawings.

[0042]FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view of a coupling for high-pressure fluid according to the first embodiment of the present invention. An end face 11 a of a pipe 11 is not a tapered face like the conventional one, but the face 11 a is a face perpendicular to the axis of the pipe 11. The end face may be flat, in this embodiment, besides that, the face is ring-shaped and is a rounded circular face like one side of a doughnut.

[0043] An end portion 11 b of the pipe 11 is provided with an inverse male screw 11 c. To the inverse male screw 11 c is screwed a bush 13 with an inner female screw.

[0044] A box nut 12 has the same construction as the box nut 2 shown in FIG. 11. That is, a hole with a step is drilled inside, and the diameter of a larger hole on the end side is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the bush 13, and the diameter of a smaller hole on the rear end side slightly larger than the outer diameter of the pipe 11.

[0045]FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of a block. The block 14 is provided with a female screw hole 15, and at the bottom portion of the female screw hole 15 is opened a fluid route 16. The inlet portion of the fluid route 16 is enlarged to form an accommodating space 17, in which a washer 18 made from a soft material is accommodated.

[0046]FIG. 3 shows the washer 18, in which (a) is a cross-sectional view taken along the line III-III of (b), and (b) is a side view. As illustrated in these figures, the washer 18 is formed to be a disk with a hole. This washer 18 is made from a material softer than that of the pipe 11, such as soft iron, copper, brass and plastics.

[0047] The washer 18 is, as shown in FIG. 1, to be accommodated in the accommodating space 17 of the fluid route 16. Under the condition, the washer 18 is unstable since it is liable to jump out of the accommodating space 17 and drop therefrom. Then, the ring 20 is mounted to prevent the drop of the washer 18.

[0048]FIG. 4 shows a ring 20, in which (a) is a cross-sectional view taken along the line IV-IV of (b), and (b) is a side view. As illustrated in these figures, the ring 20 is provided with a male screw 20 a outside of a thick disk, and a polygonal hole 20 b is drilled at the central portion thereof. The end portion 11 b of the pipe 11 is an inscribed circle of the polygonal hole 20 b. In this embodiment, the polygon is hexagon, but variety of shapes such as a triangle, a square, a pentagon and an octagon can be adopted.

[0049] Next, assembling procedure of the coupling for high-pressure fluid will be explained. At first, the washer 18 is inserted into the accommodating space 17 that is formed in the fluid route 16 of the block 14. Then, the ring 20 is screwed from the inlet of the female screw hole 15 to prevent the washer 18 from dropping out of the accommodating space 17. In order to screw the ring 20 to the female screw hole 15, a polygonal rod or a wrench adapted to the polygonal hole 20 b is prepared. And, this rod or wrench is inserted into the polygonal hole 20 b to screw the ring 20 to the female screw hole 15. When the ring 20 abuts the washer 18 or the bottom face of the female screw hole 15, it is tightened with the wrench, or it is strongly tightened with the polygonal rod that is rotated by a spanner. In consideration that a spanner is used for the tightening, as a polygon, as described in this embodiment, a hexagon or square is preferable. When the polygon has odd angles, spanners cannot be used. Further, when the polygon has more than or equal to eight angles, the shape becomes near a circle, so that tightening force cannot be increased. When a hexagon and a square are compared, a square causes the thickness of corner portions to be thin, resulting in weakness of the portions. For the above reasons, a hexagon is the best.

[0050] Next, the box nut 12 is inserted from the end of the pipe 11. The box nut 12 is moved rearward from the inverse male screw 11 c of the pipe 11. Under the condition, the end portion 11 b of the pipe 11 is maintained so as to project from the rear end side of the bush 13 where the bush 13 is screwed to the inverse male screw 11 c. The bush 13 may be positioned in the middle of the inverse male screw 11 c without any problem.

[0051] The box nut 12 is moved toward the end of the pipe 11 so as to be screwed to the female screw hole 15 of the block 14. Since the step between the larger diameter portion and the smaller diameter portion of the box nut 12 press-contacts the rear end face of the bush 13, the contact friction rotates the bush 13. However, the screw of the box nut 12 and that of the bush 13 are inversely formed with each other, which causes the bush 13 to move in a direction that the bush 13 is fastened. As a result, the bush 13 functions as a stopper for the box nut 12.

[0052] The pipe 11 proceeds in the female screw hole 15 and the end face 11 a thereof abuts the washer 18 that is accommodated in the inlet of the fluid route 16. Further strongly tightening the fastening portion of the box nut 12 with spanners or the like, the end face 11 a is strongly press-contacted to the washer 18, which allows the fluid route on the pipe 11 side and the fluid route 16 on the block 14 side to be connected with each other.

[0053] At this moment, since the end face 11 a of the pipe 11 is circularly curved and rounded, the end face 11 a and the washer 18 contacts with each other as a contact of a plane and a line, which is superior in contactability to a contact between two planes. As a result, leakage is not liable to occur even high-pressure fluid flows.

[0054] In addition, the end portion 11 b of the pipe 11 engages the polygonal hole 20 b of the ring 20 without clearance. As a result, the pipe 11 is supported at two portions that are the rear end portion of the box nut 12 and the end portion 11 b engaging the ring 20, which provides a stable support.

[0055] When the coupling is separated, firstly, the box nut 12 is loosened so as to be removed from the female screw hole 15, and the box nut 12 is retreated to the rear of the pipe 11. Then, the end portion 11 b of the pipe 11 is drawn out of the polygonal hole 20 b of the ring 20, which allows the pipe 11 to be removed from the block 14. After that, the screw of the ring 20 is loosened to remove the ring 20, and the washer 18 is drawn out.

[0056] In the construction of the coupling for high-pressure fluid shown in FIG. 1, repeated mounting and dismounting and high-pressure slurry generate friction at the press-contact portion between the end face 11 a of the pipe 11 and the washer 18 also. However, the washer 18 is soft, so that only the washer 18 wears, and the pipe 11 hardly wears. As a result, when the wear of the washer 18 progresses, only the washer 18 should be replaced, and the pipe 11 can be used continuously as it is. Further, even if the end face 11 a of the pipe 11 must be ground or polished, the thickness of the washer 18 is complementarily thickened by the length that the pipe 11 is shortened to cope with the case.

[0057] In the above embodiment, in case that the pipe 11 is mounted on or dismounted from the block 14, the pipe 11 must be moved in a direction of its axis until the end face 11 a of the pipe 11 reaches the outside of the female screw hole 15 of the block 14. However, in an actual device, the other end of the pipe 11 is also fixed to another block or the like, so that it is not easy to longitudinally move the pipe 11.

[0058]FIG. 5 shows a coupling for high-pressure fluid according to the second embodiment of the present invention, in which (a) is a longitudinal cross-sectional view, and (b) is a cross-sectional view taken along the line V-V of (a). This embodiment is for resolving the above-mentioned problem. In this embodiment, the pipe 11 cannot be moved in a direction of its length but this embodiment utilizes the fact that the pipe 11 can swing about the other end in the direction indicated by the arrow in FIG. 5. The pipe 11, the box nut 12 and the bush 13 are the same as those in the first embodiment. The washer 18 has the hole with the same inner diameter as that in the first embodiment, but has a larger outer diameter than that in the first embodiment.

[0059]FIG. 6 is an end face view of the block 14. As illustrated in FIGS. 5 and 6, at any portion (lower portion in the figure) of the female screw hole 15 of the block 14 is formed a notched portion 14 a. The width D of the notched portion 14 a is almost same as the width D of the bush 13 such that the bush 13 easily passes through. The length of the notched portion 14 a is almost same as the depth of the female screw hole 15. That is, the pipe 11 with screwed bush 13 swings in the direction indicated by the arrow in FIG. 5, and the pipe 11 can enter the female screw hole 15 from the notched portion 14 a and can retreat out of the female screw hole 15.

[0060]FIG. 7 shows a C-shaped ring 25, in which (a) is a cross-sectional view taken along the line VII-VII of (b), and (b) is a side view. This C-shaped ring 25 is similar to the ring 20 in the first embodiment. That is, the C-shaped ring 25 is provided with a male screw 25 a on the outer periphery thereof and a polygonal hole 25 b in the middle thereof. However, it differs from the ring 20 in that the C-shaped ring 25 has an opening 25 c and the dimension of the polygon is larger than the polygonal hole 20 b of the ring 20. The width d of the opening 25 c is almost same as the diameter d of the end portion 11 b of the pipe 11 such that the end portion 11 b can easily pass through.

[0061] In order to coincide the opening 25 c and the notched portion 14 a with each other, the following procedure will be taken. At first, the C-shaped ring 25 without opening 25 c, that is, ring-shaped one is prepared, and is screwed into the female screw hole 15 with a wrench or a rod inserted in the central polygonal hole 25 b. At this moment, the washer 18 is mounted at a predetermined position. After the C-shaped ring 25 is securely fastened and fixed, a portion that is concentric with the notched portion 14 a as well as coincides with the diameter of the end portion 11 b of the pipe 11 is marked with a marker or the like. After the marling, the C-shaped ring 25 is removed once and is cut at the marked position to form the opening 25 c. After that, screwing the C-shaped ring 25 to the female screw hole 15 again allows the C-shaped ring 25 and the notched portion 14 a to be concentrically overlapped with each other.

[0062] As illustrated in FIG. 5, in the C-shaped ring 25 is fixed the polygonal ring 26.

[0063]FIG. 8 shows the polygonal ring 26, in which (a) is a cross-sectional view taken along the line VIII-VIII of (b), and (b) is a side view. The polygonal ring 26 has the same outer shape as the polygonal hole 20 b of the C-shaped ring 25, and is inserted into the hole 20 b without any clearance. Then, a round hole 26 a is positioned at the center of the polygonal ring 26, and the opening 26 b is formed to be in communication with the hole 26 a. The opening 26 b is positioned in such manner as to be concentric with the opening 25 c. The diameter of the hole 26 a and the width of the opening 26 b are indicated by the same d, to which the end portion 11 b of the pipe 11 is inserted easily and without looseness.

[0064] The opening 26 b is formed as described below. After the opening 25 c is formed, to the polygonal hole 25 b is inserted the polygonal ring 26 without the opening 26 b, and the shape of the opening 26 b is marked at the same position as the opening 25 c. After marked with a marker, the polygonal ring 26 is removed once. After removed, the polygonal ring 26 is cut to form the opening 26 b.

[0065] Next, assembling procedure of the above coupling for high-pressure fluid will be explained. At first, the washer 18 is inserted into the accommodating space 17 that is formed in the fluid route 16 of the block 14. Then, the C-shaped ring 25 with the opening 25 c is screwed to the female screw hole 15 to prevent the washer 18 from dropping. Then, the polygonal ring 26 is inserted into the polygonal hole 25 b of the C-shaped ring 25. At this moment, the opening 26 b of the polygonal ring 26 and the opening 25 c of the C-shaped ring 25 should be overlapped with each other.

[0066] To the other pipe 11 is mounted the box nut 12 and is screwed the bush 13, and the pipe 11 is on standby at the lower portion of FIG. 5. The box nut 12 is sufficiently retreated rearward so as not to be interfered with the block 14, and the pipe 11 with the bush 13 near the end thereof is lifted from the lower portion of FIG. 5 to pass the notched portion 14 a. The end portion 11 b of the pipe 11 successively passes the opening 25 c of the C-shaped ring 25 and the opening 26 c of the polygonal ring 26, and is accommodated in the hole 26 a of the polygonal ring 26. After that, the box nut 12 is moved so as to be screwed to the female screw hole 15, and is fastened and fixed thereto, which completes the assembling. At the completion, the pipe 11 is stably supported at two points that are the box nut 12 and the hole 26 a of the polygonal ring 26 at the end portion 11 b thereof.

[0067] When dismounted, the box nut 12 is loosened first so as to be removed from the block 14, and the box nut 12 is retreated backward. Then, while confirming the position of the notched portion 14 a of the block 14, the pipe 11 is oscillated to the position. The pipe 11 reaches the notched portion 14 a from the polygonal ring 26 through the C-shaped ring 25, and comes out of the block 14. After that, the polygonal ring 26 is drawn out, and the C-shaped ring 25 is removed by loosening its screw, finally, the washer 18 is drawn out.

[0068] With this embodiment, the pipe 11 does not move at all in a direction of its length, so that the coupling can be mounted and dismounted without removing the other end of the pipe 11.

[0069]FIG. 9 shows a coupling for high-pressure fluid according to the third embodiment of this invention, in which (a) is a longitudinal cross-sectional view, and (b) is a cross-sectional view taken along the line IX-IX of (a). In this embodiment, the opening of the polygonal ring 26 in the embodiment shown in FIG. 5 is omitted.

[0070] A polygonal ring 36 in this embodiment has a thickness that is almost same as that of the C-shaped ring 25. And, the polygonal ring 36 is inserted to a clearance between the bush 13 and the C-shaped ring 25. To the polygonal ring 36 is drilled a hole 36 a where the end portion 11 b of the pipe 11 can pass through.

[0071] The bush 13 is screwed to a portion near the end of the pipe 11, and the polygonal ring 36 is further inserted to a position where the polygonal ring 36 closely contacts the bush 13. The end of the pipe 11 projects from the polygonal ring 36, and projected length thereof is longer than the thickness of the C-shaped ring 25. The pipe 11 under the above condition is lifted from the lower portion to the upper portion in FIG. 9, so as to pass the notched portion 14 a first. The end portion 11 b of the pipe 11 successively passes the opening 25 c of the C-shaped ring 25 and enters the female screw hole 15. Under this condition, the polygonal ring 36 is pushed into the polygonal hole 25 b of the C-shaped ring 25. After that, the box nut 12 is moved so as to be screwed to the female screw hole 15, and is fastened and fixed thereto.

[0072] In this embodiment, no opening is formed to the polygonal ring 36, which allows to support the end of the pipe 11 from all directions.
